affect the power tool’s operation. 
If damaged, have the power 
tool repaired before use. 

Many 

accidents are caused by poorly 
maintained power tools. 

f)  Keep cutting tools sharp and 
clean. 

Properly maintained cutting 

tools with sharp cutting edges are 
less likely to bind and are easier 
to control. 

g)  Use the power tool, 
accessories and tool bits 
etc. in accordance with these 
instructions, taking into account 
the working conditions and the 
work to be performed. 

Use of the 

power tool for operations different 
from those intended could result 
in a hazardous situation. 

5. Service

a)  Have your power tool serviced 
by a qualified repair person using 
only identical replacement parts. 

This will ensure that the safety of 
the power tool is maintained.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY 

POINTS FOR YOUR 

SANDER

1.  Harmful/toxic dusts will arise 
from sanding e.g. lead painted 
surfaces, woods and metals. 
Contact with or inhalation of these 
dusts can endanger the health of 
operator and bystanders. Always 
use eye glasses and dust mask.
2.  Hearing protection should be 
worn when using the sander.

3.  Hold power tool by insulated 
gripping surfaces, because the 
belt may contact its own cord. 

Cutting a "live" wire may make 
exposed metal parts of the power 
tool "live" and could give the 
operator an electric shock.

4.  Always wear safety glasses 
or eye shields when using the 
sander. Everyday eyeglasses have 
only impact-resistant lenses; they 
are not safety glasses. 

Following 

this rule will reduce the risk of 
serious personal injury.
5.  Remove the plug from the 
socket before carrying out 
any adjustment, servicing or 
maintenance.
6.  Fully unwind cable drum 
extensions to avoid potential 
overheating.
7.  When an extension cable is 
required you must ensure it has 
the correct ampere rating for 
your power tool and is in a safe
